Notes

"Contains a course of lectures delivered in Oxford, during Michaelmas term of the year now ending [1908] for the delegates of the Common University Fund. Its object is to combine a record of the principal facts of unemployement with a continuous argument as to the causes of unemployment. It includes a good deal of matter from published sources ... and appendices, the most important of which deal with 'Public labour exchanges in Germany' (reprinted from the Economic Journal for March, 1908) and 'Methods of seeking employment in Great Britain'."--Pref.
